Daniel Craig to continue as Bond "as long as he can". (Page 1 of 4)

Positive stuff from Daniel Craig, also saying that he want's to make bigger and better films and leave his mark. The brief clips of the scenes being filmed are in London.

Craig saying that he will keep going until they ask him to stop is not something I would have expected him to say when he was initially cast as Bond 6. He struck me at the time as the type of actor who would not wan't to be typecast in one role for too long.

I think he played down-and-out-journalist in The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo nicely.

The short hair has lost some of its luster and warmth, so yes, he should grow it out and show that he really still has some! I will say he has been less startlingly aged-looking in the most recent shots of him, IMO.

Indeed, I did some checking on Google Earth. Temple tube station is on the North embankment right next to the Thames. So, from a storyline perspective, its a decent car chase distance from the Whitehall offices, Fleet Street, The Houses Of Parliament and The Vauxhaull building.

Re the headline, Excellent news!!

A positive interview. Daniel Craig clearly seems to be a lot happier with the set up on Skyfall than he was on Quantum of Solace, "the tricky second album" as he called it. He really likes the script and is enjoying working alongside a pretty stellar cast. Not forgetting that he has also worked with Sam Mendes before.

The subject of typecasting was raised and Craig stated that the role of Bond was a privilege and too good an opportunity to miss and he would have to take the rough with the smooth and get on with life. All good stuff.

Here is one for Spanish speakers amongst us. An interview with Javier Bardem. It features the same footage from the film as the BBC in their interview with Daniel Craig. Craig says he is strong, a super villain.

EDIT: Here is an extended clip of Javier Bardem's interview.

The article translates part of it.

"It's been a fun adventure. But more importantly, also has everything you would expect from a James Bond film, a powerful story and a character with flesh."

"When you see the material and the character, you forget a bit of a James Bond movie and see it's a great movie, and that's what attracted me much."

Wasn't similar propaganda put out before we got the "Masterpiece " QOS.
I seem to remember " Great script"  "keeping many of the traditional elements " etc.

He very cleverly says absolutely nothing about his character at all, though.  I did like this line the best...

Explaining why Raoul Silva will be blonde, Bardem says, "I don't know, ..."

At the end of the day,When all is said and done.  I do hate a cliche   

MTV News recently visited the set of Skyfall at Pinewood. They interviewed Daniel Craig, Javier Bardem and Berenice Marlohe. Perhaps the most interesting comment from Craig is when he mentions the very important relationship between Bond and Silva that gives the film a richer context. Bardem says Silva is really complex, not an easy guy.
